Value Collection 32114 Pan Head Phillips Sheet Metal Screw

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION 32114 is a 1/4-inch pan head sheet metal screw with a Phillips drive, designed for fastening sheet metal components in HVAC, electrical, and general trade applications. It features a Type AB point for reliable self-starting in light-gauge metal without a pilot hole. The screw is manufactured from Grade 2 steel with a zinc finish that provides basic corrosion resistance in dry and semi-exposed environments. The 3/4-inch length is measured under the head, making it suitable for thin to medium sheet metal assemblies. This fastener is sold in minimum quantities of 25 units per order.

This screw is commonly used by HVAC technicians for securing duct sections, access panels, and sheet metal enclosures. It also sees use in electrical panel fabrication, light structural sheet metal work, and equipment housing assembly. The pan head profile sits flush and distributes clamping load evenly across the mating surface, which is preferable in applications where a low-profile head is needed without countersinking.

Key Features

• Type AB point for self-starting in light-gauge sheet metal without a pilot hole
• Pan head profile distributes clamping load and keeps a low exterior profile
• Phillips drive compatible with standard and power screwdrivers
• Zinc finish provides basic corrosion resistance in dry and semi-exposed conditions
• Grade 2 steel construction for standard-duty fastening applications
• Sold in multiples of 25 units

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4-inch Type AB pan head sheet metal screw suitable for light-gauge metal fabrication and assembly in HVAC, electrical, and general trade applications.

Installation Notes

Sheet metal screws should be installed by trained HVAC technicians, electricians, or sheet metal workers following applicable codes such as SMACNA standards for duct assembly. Power down or de-energize any equipment before fastening panels or enclosures. Use a Phillips-tip screwdriver or power driver at appropriate speed to avoid stripping the drive or over-driving the fastener into thin gauge material. Do not overtorque, as sheet metal threads can strip in thin stock.
